More From Robert De Niro
- "I don’t like to watch my own movies – I fall asleep in my own movies."
- "I’ll work with a director if I think I’m going to get into a comfortable situation, and if it’s someone I respect and who respects me, even if they’re not so well known. Movies are hard to make, and you have to work toward a common ethic and do your best."
- "The hardest thing about being famous is that people are always nice to you."

- "Success is not something I’ve wrapped my brain around. If people go to those movies, then yes, that’s true, big-time success. If not, it’s much ado about nothing."― Matt Damon
